Deepak Chopra, M.D., has emerged as one of the most powerful leaders in the revolutionary field of mind/body medicine. His extraordinary bestseller Quantum Healing explored the mind's connection to seemingly miraculous cures for cancer and other serious illnesses. Now, in Unconditional Life, he undertakes an even greater challenge: to explain how consciousness can lead the way to total freedom and perfect health. Unconditional Life brings together disciplines ranging from modern physics and neuroscience to the ancient traditions of Indian wisdom to show how our perceptions create our reality for good or ill--and how the outside world can be shaped by altering the world within. In a book filled with hope and inspiration, Dr. Chopra offers compelling proof of the power of consciousness and a daring new vision of our own unlimited potential.

The question addressed in this discourse was - When meditating and a thought arises, and you remind yourself that you don't have to think about that thought, but the thought continues to dominate no matter how hard you try. How does one deal with such a situation?  

Om Swami, provides a powerful and deeply insightful answer to this question on meditation. Giving the analogy of a hammer and key, he explains that by feeling guilty or forcing your mind to stop having thoughts, or emotionally blackmailing your mind is like hitting the hammer on a lock. Instead, like how a key fits perfectly into the lock if it's the right key, the secret is to build that sort of a relationship with your mind. By having a dialogue with your mind with love instead of being authoritative with it, you are likely to accomplish more.

If thoughts emerge while meditating, there are mainly two or three reasons for it. First, you are trying hard not to have thoughts during your meditation. Second, concentration is gone and one is sitting for the sake of completing their sadhana. There isn't a need to do it this way, take a break. In the beginning, only quality matters in meditation. As we progress, quantity, and quality, both become important.

Listen to the full discourse for powerful insights on how to meditate the right way.

"In a nutshell: while meditating, don’t brood over, don’t resent and don’t repent your past. Don’t examine what’s going on in your present life. Don’t imagine any future. Don’t analyze any thought. When any thought comes, don’t run after it. It’ll disappear. Don’t crave for any specific experience or else you’ll end up mentally constructing that experience thereby polluting your meditation." https://os.me/six-principles-of-mahamudra-meditation/
